Default Is Dominator/Predetor(~6dB gain) competent to CP antennas for LPFM?

Dear All,
I have been researching for a long time to know weather there is a
cost effective alternative to the costly CP antenna bay for my low
budget LPFM station. And interestingly I have found the one called
Dominator/Predetor (with true ~6dB gain).

1. Norwalk Electronics' Dominator® FM broadcast antenna
(http://fmbroadcastantenna.com/)

2. HIGH GAIN COLINEAR ALUMINUM Wave PREDATOR
(http://www.pcs-electronics.com/wave-...na-p-1096.html)

At a the budget of $300 the best high gain antenna I could find are
these. And so I have decided to purchase any one of these two.
Though
I am still in doubt weather the high gain (nearly 6db not 6dBi) is a
hype.

I am looking for some comment on it if some of you have come accross
these antennas.

Regards,
Bhuvan
